FAU Recognized as Top Minority Degree Producer

Friday, Oct 14, 2022

I am pleased to share that Florida Atlantic University has been recognized by Diverse: Issues In Higher Education magazine as a top producer of bachelor’s and master’s degrees for minority students. On the Top 100 list for all disciplines combined, FAU’s rankings include:

  • 17 for African Americans with bachelor’s degrees
  • 40 for Hispanics with bachelor’s degrees
  • 51 for African Americans with master’s degrees
  • 53 for Hispanics with master’s degrees
  • 44 for total minority students with bachelor’s degrees
  • 60 for total minority students with master’s degrees

FAU was founded on the principle of making higher education available to all, and these rankings reaffirm the university’s ongoing commitment to breaking down barriers to student success. It is an honor to be recognized as a leader of equitable achievement, especially for traditionally underserved students. We are proud to be an institution that embraces diversity and creates generational change.
